PREPARE YOURSELVES AND EACH OTHER FOR WRITING AN ANALYSIS
Help each other by giving your own views of the novels you have studied.

Use these questions to help you talk about your novels. It is essential to find examples or quotes in the text to support your answers.

* The title  - in connection to the plot, as I see it. (plot)
* Who tells the story? (narrator)
* Which character do I feel that I know best after reading the novel? (character)
* Which character changes the most throughout the novel? (character)
* Where in the world and when does the story take place? What year, time of day or season etc.
( setting)
* Of all the things that happen in the novel, what do you react to the most? (plot)
* Does the story remind you of anything important in life such as money, love, friendship, death ...?
(theme)
Most stories have an underlying theme that is supposed to make the reader think about important things in life. These themes are universial and everyone can identify with them.

Always remember that your comments are yours; there are no completely true or false answers to the questions. as long as you can give examples from the text and give reasons for your opinions your analysis is fine.
